pretty {little} pouch swap.

Have you heard about the 

It's an awesome new swap started by Michelle from i like orange, too!
and Kelly from kelbysews.
ps...sign ups are open until April 8th.
go check it out.
 
So after officially signing up for the swap this weekend,
I had pouches on my mind.
The solution?  Make one of my own of course.

The front features a herringbone design using some
Midwest Modern by Amy Butler accented with
Kona Med Gray.

And for the back I opted for a simpler patchwork pattern
using the same fabrics.

Oh, and here is my inspiration mosaic for my partner.
Yummy goodness.

Must mean I really like that pouch, huh?

  1. Um, hello? how rad is that herringbone?! If that's just a practice run, I'll take it off your hands, and you can make your partner a new one. Deal? :-)
